I would be very careful of "RENNtech" headers being sold on e-bay. Many of them are a cheap copy. Over the past couple of years, I've seen many RENNtech (and Evosport) replicas on e-bay being sold as the main brand.

Not much of a difference between those RENNtech headers and these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Merce...Q5fAccessories

I emailed these guys today. I'm quite sure they are standard PLM Headers that people on here have gotten on eBay. If you look at the dyno graph, the numbers are identical. Just FYI,

I would be careful from e-bay listings.... these may end up being PLM replicas, which are supposedly high quality replicas of RENNtech's headers. I wouldn't trust the dyno they posted, as many e-bay re-sellers tend to steal dyno graphs and post them in their ad in order to sell the product faster. In my opinion, if you want PLM headers, then go directly to the source and contact PLM. And if you want RENNtech headers, then go directly to RENNtech, etc...

My statement regarding the headers being like the PLM Headers were in reference to these, not the original Renntech headers link. These were the same headers in my post "Does anyone have these shorty headers?"

Im honestly considering selling the pulley and going another route. I want to get a lowering module, possibly new wheels and some exhuast work before I do anything.. Im kinda worried about reliability if I go with a tune and headers..

I have time as you know, as our cars arent going anywhere will all this snow..
